Acknowledgements
My appreciation goes to every person who provided me with the material for Letters to the Dead: Things I Wish I’d Said. Gratitude abounds for the lessons learned through my experience with each person.
As a young girl in a small Texas town I could never dream or imagine that one day I would work with those famous stars I watched in the movies every weekend.
With gratitude I wish to acknowledge the readers, with the hope that you, too, will identify with my experiences as your own. I actually experienced all these celebrities on a very personal level and that is what I want you to also feel for yourself.
At the time, struggling with my career, small parts were never enough. I chose not to ask for autographed photos for myself assuming I would be a star with them one day.
No – my Hollywood career never progressed the way I thought destiny meant it to be. As I review my life today, I realize the emotional – spiritual wealth I gleaned has far more value than fame or material wealth – a hard lesson learned in our way of life. Had it not been for life’s joys and chaos, I would not have evolved spiritually as far as I have with a very deep understanding of the true meaning of life. My greatest defeats and trials have been my greatest achievements. And, no – I never did walk on stage to accept my Academy Award!
Last but not least, I acknowledge, with gratitude, my publishers for believing in my work and opening the printed-word-door so that I may share these experiences with you now.
Lovingly,
Ann Palmer
